Singapore Heritage Shophouse No. 89"

Whew, this has been a whirlwind week. I'm just flat out exhausted, to tell you the truth. Last week was another week for The Fair at Goodwood Park Hotel. It went well, made some great sales, met some new friends and collectors again. It just turns into long, long days.

I'm a little dispirited because somehow in setting up all the Christmas decorations and getting ready for guests on Monday, my camera has gone missing. My best guess is that it somehow wound up in a bag of trash from decorations and was accidentally thrown out. Because I have literally torn this house apart looking for it. But every time I think it is lost, I remember the family legend about my grandmother "losing" a family ring that was so well hidden (in case of thieves) she didn't find it for years! Unfortunately, I don't have years to wait to find this camera. The worst part (besides having to buy a new camera) is that all of the pictures I've taken in the past month are lost along with the camera, including a commission I was working on and all the photos I took while I was in Vietnam for a week. Luckily, I've been backing up my memory card every month, but unluckily, it had been a month since I backed it up. Sigh.

Welcome!

Hi! I'm Shelby Dillon, an artist that has been blessed (and cursed) with a case of wanderlust. I'm currently based out of Singapore, in Southeast Asia, but my roots come from another southeast - the Lowcountry of South Carolina and then New Orleans, Louisiana. I currently paint small paintings of my travels every day, and they are available in my Etsy store or on Dailypaintworks soon after they are listed here. To be the first to know about new artwork as it is listed, enter your email address above. No spam, I promise!
